David James Elliott and I keep in touch via phone.

Michael Landon was the biggest influence. As a child, I watched him write, direct, star, and produce a TV show every week. He showed me what was possible.

I love working! I'm a huge fan of TV and will be happy as long as I'm getting to be creative.

Lots of TV shows say that they are like doing a movie every week, but 'JAG' truly was a huge show. Lots of once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, like being launched off an aircraft carrier and being welcomed by military bases all over California.

I keep in touch with what's real.

If David Bowie wants, I'll put him in my phone book.
